  • What an incredible day for our Scenic City! ☀️ Today, we celebrated with Erlanger Park’s founding partners as we come together to invest in Erlanger Park. Every time we step into this new stadium, we're reminded of what happens when we take a chance, create a vision, and explore something new. That spirit of dreaming big and building boldly is exactly what we believe in at Erlanger. It's the same vision that led someone to open a hospital here 125 years ago. Look how that dream has grown—from a single idea of care to a system serving generations. For more than a century, we've cared for this community—body, mind, and spirit. And for nearly 70 years, the Chattanooga Lookouts have taught us how to play, cheer, and enjoy the simple things in life. Together, we share one goal: a vibrant, healthy Chattanooga where people and partnerships thrive. This partnership is about more than a name on a sign. It's about creating a place where wellness and community meet—where families gather, memories are made, and our mission comes to life. You'll see us here leading wellness events, screenings, and fitness challenges—from supporting professional ballplayers to T-ballers, from marathons to yoga classes. Because health doesn't just happen in hospitals; it happens wherever people come together. This ballpark is an investment in our future, built on vision, optimism, and teamwork. When that first pitch is thrown in April, it won't just start a new season—it will mark the start of something truly special for Chattanooga, for our organization, and for everyone who believes in what can happen when we dream together. Thank you to our elected officials, founding partners, and neighbors who share this belief in what's possible. Here's to building a healthier, more vibrant community—together. ⚾ #Chattanooga #ErlangerPark #CommunityHealth #Partnership #ScenicCity
